On April 23, to regulate the remanufacturing behavior and market order of automotive parts, ensure the quality of remanufactured products, and promote the high-quality development of the automotive parts remanufacturing industry, the National Development and Reform Commission, Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, Ministry of Ecology and Environment, Ministry of Transport, Ministry of Commerce, General Administration of Customs, State Administration for Market Regulation, and China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission jointly issued the "Interim Measures for the Standardized Management of Automotive Parts Remanufacturing" (hereinafter referred to as the "Interim Measures").

The "Interim Measures" introduce that remanufacturing refers to the process of professionally repairing or upgrading old automotive parts that are no longer used due to functional damage or technical obsolescence, so that their quality characteristics and safety and environmental performance are not lower than those of the original new products.

The "Interim Measures" consist of eight chapters and thirty-six articles, clearly stipulating the standardized conditions for remanufacturing enterprises, management of old parts recycling, remanufacturing production management, remanufactured product management, remanufacturing market management, supervision and management, and other aspects.

The "Interim Measures" highlight the following key points:

First, remanufactured products are required to strictly match the original new products. The "Interim Measures" clarify that remanufacturing enterprises are the main quality responsibility entities for remanufactured products, and set normative requirements for their internal quality management, product design, production processes, quality inspection levels, technical equipment, and environmental protection equipment. It is clearly stipulated that the performance and quality of remanufactured products shall not be lower than those of the original new products, and they shall comply with the same standards as new products in factory inspection and testing, mandatory certification, and warranty standards. Relevant enterprises are required to inform consumers that the products sold are remanufactured, provide remanufactured product labels and instructions, make public commitments to society, and provide certificates of conformity and after-sales warranty certificates.

Second, regulate the production behavior of remanufacturing enterprises. The "Interim Measures" regulate the main links of production behavior of remanufacturing enterprises, including the ability to detect and identify old parts, technical equipment and production capacity for disassembly, cleaning, manufacturing, assembly, product quality inspection, and related waste treatment and environmental protection requirements, to ensure the quality of remanufactured products.

Third, propose measures to encourage the application of remanufactured products. While regulating the circulation of remanufactured products, the "Interim Measures" encourage deep integration of insurance and the remanufacturing industry, encourage scrapped motor vehicle recycling and dismantling enterprises, insurance companies, and automobile repair enterprises to prioritize cooperation with certified remanufacturing enterprises and use their remanufactured products. Government agencies, the military, and other public institutions are encouraged to prioritize the use of remanufactured products.

According to the "Interim Measures," remanufacturing enterprises shall meet the following conditions: first, possess technical equipment and capabilities for disassembly, cleaning, manufacturing, assembly, and product quality inspection; second, have technical means and capabilities to detect and identify the performance indicators of old parts; third, have corresponding pollution prevention facilities and capabilities, meet relevant waste treatment and environmental protection requirements, and achieve standard pollutant discharge; fourth, establish and implement relevant technical quality standards and production specifications for product remanufacturing; fifth, make public commitments to society, including product quality performance, after-sales warranty, and label usage; sixth, the types of products remanufactured shall comply with national relevant laws and regulations; seventh, comply with national laws, regulations, and other conditions stipulated by relevant authorities.

In addition, the state encourages existing remanufacturing enterprises to upgrade quality, gather development, and improve industrialization and standardization levels. It encourages remanufacturing enterprises to carry out remanufacturing quality management system certification . Remanufacturing enterprises should actively adopt internationally advanced quality management standards to improve management levels.

About quality management systems

A quality management system is the part of an organizational management system related to quality, used to establish quality policies and quality objectives, including the processes to achieve these objectives and a set of interrelated and interacting elements. Having a formal quality management system will play an important supporting role in the long-term development of the organization.

Management system standards are divided into three categories:

Category A: Management system requirement standards. These standards mainly provide relevant specifications about the organization's management system to the market, and through evaluation, prove whether the organization's management system meets internal and external requirements.

Category B: Management system guidance standards. These standards provide additional or independent guidance on various elements of the management system to help organizations implement and/or improve the management system.

Category C: Management system related standards. These standards provide detailed information on specific parts of the management system or guidance on related supporting technologies of the management system.

Characteristics of the quality management system series standards:

1. Theoretical. The quality management system series standards are based on the ISO 9000 standard theory, providing basic concepts, management principles, and fundamental terminology for quality management. Other standards also involve related management theories to varying degrees. These management theories have been proven through practice to bring value to stakeholders.

2. Requirement. The only requirement standard in the quality management system series is the ISO 9001 standard. The core clauses' requirements in the standard must be met by organizations when establishing, implementing, maintaining, and improving the quality management system, and are also important criteria for quality management system audit and evaluation.

3. Improvement. Improvement (pursuit of sustained success) is one of the core concepts of management systems, reflected in multiple standards. Additionally, ISO 9004 provides quality management methods for pursuing sustained success beyond the requirements of ISO 9001. Other related supporting standards also provide specialized improvement methods. The "Quality Management Methods and Tools" book in the conformity assessment series tutorials also provides improvement tools.

4. Evaluation. The ISO 19011 standard provides audit management methods for evaluating quality management systems, offering important support for systematic continuous improvement.

5. Relevance and independence.

The main functions of the quality management system series standards are:

(1) Improve quality awareness and product quality

(2) Standardize behavior and improve work efficiency

(3) Reduce costs and achieve profit growth

(4) Enhance customer recognition and satisfaction, expand market share

(5) Obtain market "passports" and promote enterprise internationalization

(6) Enhance competitiveness and achieve excellent development

The national zero-carbon factory policy is now in effect! United Zhiye provides precise support to help clients seize the initiative in their transformation.

Based on the strategic plan proposed by the headquarters, United Zhiye takes the upgrade of its product system as a key driver to build a three-tiered business structure—comprising “zero-carbon factory solutions + carbon-related products + integrated comprehensive services”—and thereby develop end-to-end service capabilities. The original enterprise’s integrated approach to low-carbon development has been upgraded to an integrated approach to zero-carbon development, which we regard as a milestone event. While the zero-carbon factory business focuses on deepening engagement in the manufacturing sector, the integrated approach to zero-carbon enterprise development transcends industry boundaries, extending its reach to the service sector and thus covering a broader scope of services.
